Uncertain whether you’d prefer a holiday in the Netherlands or Germany? Set up camp at Camping de Blökke – a family-friendly site on a working farm less than five minutes’ drive from the Gelderland towns of De Heurne and Dinxperlo – and have the best of both.
The site is less than 10 minutes from Germany, and one of the nearest towns – Dinxperlo – straddles the border, making explores of both countries an absolute cinch. Those explores should start in Dinxperlo itself, where guests can join smuggling tours, wander about the Borderland museum and visit the smallest church in the Netherlands, De Rietstap.
Not ready for getting out and about? Unwind back at site instead, where pitches are in an orchard with pretty views of the nearby meadows, and guests are encouraged to help Farmer Hans with taking the cows out to pasture, riding the tractor and – during well-timed stays – bottle-feeding the calves, plus the kids can ride (and groom) the farm’s ponies.
Those aren’t the only benefits to farm stays either: a small on-site farm shop stocks fresh milk, eggs, ice cream and meat from the farm itself, as well as local products and fresh bread (delivered daily with advance order). During high season, a snack truck drops by the site at weekends, so evening meals can be handily sorted.
For less farm-related entertainment, opt for days spent on the playgrounds, hiring bikes and setting out on routes starting from site (maps available in the farmhouse), playing miniature golf, or retreating indoors for games and crafts in the recreation room.

Local attractions
With a wealth of towns and cities to visit on both sides of the border, choosing where to begin might be a challenge. After exploring Dinxperlo, start with a trip to the town of Winterswijk (25 minutes’ drive) for visits to Harmienehoeve dairy farm, Sevink Molen indoor play centre, Villa Mondriaan art museum, and the indoor go-karting track.
For days spent dipping toes into the past, head first to Aalten (15 minutes) to visit the National Hideout Museum, then venture farther for Slangenburg and Huis Bergh castles (both 25 minutes) and the open-air Erve Kots museum (20 minutes).
When ready to cross over into Germany, make a beeline for the city of Bocholt (20 minutes) where a subtropical swimming pool, textile museum and stunning historical town hall building are must-visits. Travel onwards for strolls about the Anholter Schweiz Wildlife Park and visits to Anholt castle (both 15 minutes), and trips to Essen (an hour) and Düsseldorf (one hour 15 minutes).
